The Nail Challenge Collaborative: Black & White - Week 3

There is a 99.9% chance that I wasn't fond of how these nails turned out. So following in the footsteps of The Mercurial Magpie, I "fairy dusted that shit!" (;

Here's what I used:

I was attempting to recreate this pattern from Pinterest but halfway through the 1st nail, I remembered that I really hate using a dotting tool and stopped. I kind of liked how the design looked but felt like it was missing something....Enter Fairy Dust!

I started these nails with 2 coats of Sinful Colors Black On Black and a layer of topcoat. I place the rhinestones and then started adding the white dots, attempting to create a sideways diamond shape. When that was done, I decided to sponge on some Fairy Dust around the dots.

These nails are okay. There's nothing really wrong with them except for maybe the dotting on my pinky being a bit wonky. I just don't personally think I would wear these again. Who knows, maybe one of you guys will like them!
